ElizaMarie I didn't get to read this one - also one I had never read, so Its on my TBR to seek it out, but I am interested in reading other's responses to it. 1w

BarkingMadRead It was not my fave, the characters weren‘t his usual, but the idea was good 1w

BookwormAHN Also not my favorite. Dawes was frustrating 🤦🏼‍♀️ 1w

Roary47 I need to get my hands of these stories eventually. 😬😅 1w

KathyWheeler I read these all years ago when that collection first came out. I didn‘t remember Roadwork at all. It‘s not my favorite at all. 1w

BarkingMadRead @KathyWheeler I know I‘ve read it before but I don‘t remember it. It made zero impression on me 🤣 1w

KathyWheeler @BarkingMadRead Apparently it made none one either! The only one I remember well from that collection is Rage. 7d

PaperbackPirate I thought it was a good story despite it being so dark. The main character frustrated me but at the same time I understand why he was so upset. 5d

5feet.of.fury Ugh I have this one so I want to read it but idk if I‘m mentally prepared 😩 2w

BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury I feel that in my soul. This one is hard 2w

Roary47 I‘m excited, but after @5feet.of.fury and @BarkingMadRead comments maybe I should prepare myself too. (Oblivious) 🤔 2w

BarkingMadRead @Roary47 it‘s so so good, but as one of his books that could technically happen, it makes it a little rough. There‘s no sci fi in this one 2w

tpixie Poor Cujo… 🐺 2w

ElizaMarie I revisited this pme via Audio recently. I could use a relisten or a reread (I got the physical copy too) it just is so gut wretching! 2w

KathyWheeler I haven‘t reread this in decades. It‘ll be interesting to reread it. 2w

bekakins I first read this when I was about 12… then reread a few years back and couldn‘t believe how devastating it is 😩 1w

Bookwormjillk I loved this one as a teen. I used to sit with my friend Amy trying to set things on fire with our minds for hours. It was the super power I most wanted to have when I was about 13. I still liked it on this re-read, but I thought the middle dragged a bit. Not a bad ending for King.

Also I think the first season of Stranger Things owes this book a lot! 1mo

AllDebooks @Bookwormjillk yes, I found it a similar premise to ST. I loved the story and characters. I found it quite gripping in places. 1mo

5feet.of.fury @Bookwormjillk yes! I thought it ended solidly, which he sometimes just doesn‘t do lol Agree about Stranger Things too. 1mo

5feet.of.fury It‘s kind of smack between Carrie and The Institute both plotwise and character/scifi focussed. This was my first read of it, I just think it‘s neat 1mo

ElizaMarie Wasn't able to re-read this one - I really need to organize my reading room - I know I had a copy of it somewhere! Anyway, I remember loving this one when I first read it, and as a fellow #KingGirlie I did the same @BookwormJillK 1mo

bekakins Totally agree with the comments ref ST. This is one of my absolute favourites. 1mo

kwmg40 Still waiting for a library loan, but I will get to this one eventually! 1mo

TieDyeDude @5feet.of.fury I found I liked this more than Carrie. I don't remember The Institute enough to compare. But, yes, it was just really neat. As much as I love when he takes the time to build a town and it's inhabitants, with this and The Shining, I'm liking his more narrowly focused stories. 1mo

5feet.of.fury @TieDyeDude the Institute was pretty much Stranger Things and you got the backstory on the whole town 😂 1mo

BarkingMadRead @TieDyeDude 💯 they both have their pros and cons. This is one of my faves for sure 1mo

Bookwormjillk I‘m still working on The Dark Half which I read accidentally last month. Then I have the new one and this which both came in from the library at the same time. It‘s going to be a King filled month. Not complaining because to me Stephen King=Summer reading. 2mo

bekakins This is one of my absolute faves! I used to have a hardback omnibus of The Eyes of the Dragon & Firestarter and it was proper comfort reading for me whenever I was off sick from school 2mo

BarkingMadRead @bekakins 😍😍😍 2mo

JessClark78 I just finished The Stand. I‘ll catch up this month. 2mo

BarkingMadRead @JessClark78 I am still reading the Stand 🙈 it‘s a reread of a reread of a reread times 100 for me so I‘ve been reading a chapter a day 🤣 2mo

TieDyeDude I listened to this on audio, narrated by James Franco. It was a tough listen because Franco sounded completely uninterested. I really enjoyed the foreshadowing used by King, like the seemingly random lightning rod salesman. It was a long road to get to the events of the conclusion, but I loved the ride. I'd like to re-read a physical copy in the future; I feel like I'd like it even more without Franco's droning... 2mo

BarkingMadRead @TieDyeDude ugh how disappointing! 2mo

Bookwormjillk SHOOT! I accidentally got The Dark Half instead. I always mix those up. 😂

Not finished yet but I'm enjoying it. Re-read The Dead Zone a few years back and liked that too. 2mo

Bklover This is one of my favorites. Not sure why, except I remember reading it when it first came out. I loved it then, (I was 19), and I still reread it occasionally. It still holds up as one of my favorites. 2mo

kwmg40 Like @TieDyeDude, I disliked James Franco's narration, but otherwise I loved the story, and it really is hard not to think about today's political situation while reading this book. 2mo

kwmg40 After finishing the book, I immediately watched the 1983 adaptation, which I thought was very good. My only complaint is that it was so condensed. All the plot elements were there (with some minor changes) but so many details that contributed to the character development were cut. 2mo
